I just found my tranny dip stick after 21 years of ownership. Oops! As I was pulling the motor of my Subie (to give it a new body), I found a strange dip stick I had never seen before:cornfuzz: It was shinny and clean? ........and not oily......... After all these years it was only a quart low:banana: Subarus are great! Glenn, 82 Hatch, with new tranny oil! 01 Forester, guess I should check it while I'm thinking about it.

Hummmmmmmm? The first picture says;................ ...............I said RIGHT you Idiot!............. No,...........Wait a minute...........my map is upside down.:cornfuzz: Good thing we didn't stop for Hot Coffee at Mcdonalds! The second picture says, Ja, Sven, I sure Vish we had built a Rhino Buggy un-stead of this stupid corntraption. :argue: or........... Look what, Larry, Curley and Moe built while on a drinking binge:drunk: Importent safety tip; Mixing, Alcohol, Subaru and welding can have terrible consequences:eek:

It's kinda both. I believe dealers were sending these out to be "converted" back then and selling them at the Dealership as a new car. I have only seen the 2 door sedans converted:mad: Try a search on Convertable on this forum? Either way they are keepers! Glenn, 82 Hatch, now a convertable...... 01 Forester, hard top..........

It's hard to read but some of your questions could be answered here. 1983 Subaru It's a link to the Brochure section of the USMB:wave: For what it's worth, Glenn, 82 Hatch, need parts? 01 Forester, has parts!

Hummmmm.........Specialty tools........? Duct Tape...... Vice grips....... Hack saw....... I didn't think there were any other specialty tools:cornfuzz: Glenn, 82 Hatch, well it started out as one........ 01 Forester, still looks like one.........

That Delfino is cool! ..............and fast......... Impreza huh.................? Hummmmmmmmmm! Glenn, Thinking......:cornfuzz: Got it!

I wonder if Chevrolet was the one responsible for putting lousy bearings in Foresters:madder: Glenn, 82 Hatch, well it use to be...... 01 Forester, gonna go check the bearings now:cornfuzz:

Bump! Oops!

Let the Dealer tell you! They would probably offer convenient financing option$ too! My local dealer offers an adjustable rate on cap and rotor purchases over $1000.:madder:

I went to the site and I still don't know what a "Rotated American" is? Guess I'm not that good........:brolleye: Glenn, 82 Hatch, well it use to be....:temper: 01 Forester, still is.........:wave:

It's also an Isuzu thing! Any forward gear then to reverse and it will behave.:madder: Glenn, Bunches-o-Cars

Buy both, return one.............. Distributor caps are the magic solution to my old EA81. Any time it's running rough-------a cap and rotor cure it every time! It's a no-tools tune up! Good luck, Glenn 82 Hatch, well it use to be......:temper: 01 Forester, still is...........

We're all loosers here! No one cares about old Subies, I'm so ashamed....... I could host a meet and greet in my car and still not be able to drive in the car pool lane.:boohoo: Even if you not into "modifying" your old subie, it's still a great site to keep up on repair info or stuff like that. the people are fun:argue: Glenn, 82 Hatch, 01 Forester,

http://www.thereunionbrat.com/ Any Questions........ Damn I'm good! Glenn, Computer with google

Ask him if he would buy a car without driving it? He's trying to screen out all the yahoos who just want to joyride. but that ain't the way to do it.........:moon: Glenn, Wish I had an STi....

Yes, it finally happend! My little SubaruHummer has new treads. Big Treads! Got my rims last week (they are as wide as they are high). You may have seen them on the Super rare rims thread. If not...... Rim profiles front, side.... Got some Beefy 6 ply's mounted on them this weekend. Front and rear pics. The buggy now needs an electrical system and a shortened exhaust system. Both are about half done. I hope to have it out and about soon!!!!!!! I just wanted to show off my latest pics. I can't Wait!!!!!! This is killing me Glenn, 82 Summer, real close to dun! 01 Forester, Dun!

Duct Tape?

I agree with Shawn, Those scoops are excellent! Don't get me started on the Forester D/R tranny issue:madder:

Thanks for your help! Good to hear "The Guru of Subaru" made it home............ What a drive! Apparently,.........Little Roo is the little subie that could!:wave: Glenn, 82 Bandit, the only one in the country.........(make the other....) 01 Forester, with fake the lift.........

I shopped for both, I didn't care which one I ended up with. I like them both. OBW are a nice looking car, Foresters are a little queer looking. Forester was about a grand cheaper for the same year. If you compare spec for spec you'll see the Forester and Outback are more different than you may think. The Forester is set up more for off-road then the Outback (Clearance etc.) Foresters seem more peppy to me! Glenn, 82 Hatch, well it use to be....... 01 Forester, purchased for 1k under low book with low miles. :temper:

Sweet! Has anyone's GL label plates NOT turned yellow? Nice Ride, Glenn, 82 Hatch, well it use to be........ 01 Forester, still is.........

Your're lucky all 5 tires left SLC! What a great ride! Awasome Rig! I love the looks we got going to the JY. Everyone Looked/staired/gocked! We don't have these here! It's truly an eye catcher. Even the JY guys were gocking when we went away to get the parts. Mudrat thought your disty may be on it's way out? Lack of power up through I-15. We got it just because the price was good and it only had 95k on it! Couldn't hurt for that price. Love your GPS system, Glenn, 82 Summer 01 Forester

Mudrats headed north! John blew out of SLC about sun down heading for Winemucca NV. Little Roo is running much better now, seems to be adjusting to the altitude. While Little Roo was visiting John welded the loop of her push bar. :wave: and also picked up a spare distributor ($11.99) from a local Junkyard. During the visit to the JY we saw a deer get hit by a car:burnout: . Mudrat wanted so bad, to strap her on Little Roo and make Stakes. It was good to hook up with both of them. Mudrat is truly the "Guru of Subaru!" and Little Roo is certainly a capable ride in her current state. The thought of the two of them together for a few weeks could be scary:slobber: {Monster Garage} That the latest..... Glenn 82 Summer, looks killer with Little Roos spare 27" super swamper on 01 Forester, Mudrat insists it's too low

From what you guys are telling me it seems as though it is a "universal" type. Box says nothing about direction of flow. The flow diagram looks like this <A-----B> That might mean it can flow either way? Mudrat thought it could go either way too! I'm hookin it up! Thanks for the feed back Glenn 82 Summer, (Subaru Hummer) soon to have an exhaust system. 01 Forester, already has exhaust system!

Just got a new muffler for the Buggy. One end, of the muffler, is off-set the other is centered. It fits better one direction. The problem is the <A-B> stamped on the muffler will be reversed <B-A>. B at the front A at the rear if I install it in the best fitting direction. Is this a problem? Anyone know the <A-B> stamp? I don't know mufflers!:cornfuzz: Thanks, Glenn 82 Hatch, well it use to be......... 01 Forester, still is..............
